IIRC, this question has come up before and there doesn't appear to be a way to get a list of all known UTIs from Launch Services. The 10.4 version of Finder appeared to have some private way of getting this list, however, the list was mostly useless for browsing through due to the inordinate number of UTIs that applications/bundles had declared.
